Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor,\u201d Trump wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous. He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he\u2019s not very smart, he\u2019s got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin\u2019 Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him. Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But, it didn\u2019t stop there.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-better-looking-person\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018Better looking person\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Just days before Mamdani claimed his victory, Trump spoke on CBS\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/read-full-transcript-norah-odonnell-60-minutes-interview-with-president-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">60 Minutes<\/a>\u00a0weighed in on the race in his hometown \u2013 and the man who would soon beat his political allies at the ballot box.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview, that aired Nov. 2, Norah O\u2019Donnell pressed Trump about comparisons between him and Mamdani. Both men, she noted, had built populist movements. Both came from Queens. Both were accused by critics of disrupting the political norm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people have compared him to a left-wing version of you, charismatic, breaking the old rules. What do you think about that?\u201d O\u2019Donnell asked the POTUS.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, unsurprisingly, didn\u2019t see the resemblance. With an irreverent, off-script response that was intended to poke, Trump said: \u201cWell, I think I\u2019m a much better-looking person than him, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-turn-the-volume-up\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018Turn the volume up!\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>But Mamdani refused to trade insults and instead opted to play hardball.<\/p>\n<p>During his victory speech, he stood proudly in front of supporters and delivered a direct message to the 79-year-old president: \u201cDonald Trump, since I know you\u2019re watching, I have four words for you: turn the volume up!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t just a clapback \u2013 it was a warning. Mamdani\u2019s campaign had long positioned itself as the antithesis to Trump-era politics, especially on immigration and economic inequality. He made it clear that his mayoralty would be a direct challenge to the kind of nationalism and division Trump represents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him,\u201d Mamdani told supporters Nov. 4, per\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/mamdani-trump-turn-volume-up-2025-11-05\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Reuters<\/a>. \u201cAnd if there is any way to terrify a despot, it is by dismantling the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power.
